Default what mufflers for true duals

I have pacesetter Lt's which are ran true duals into MAC muffler's. I think it sounds great. I will work on a sound clip.

Heres my recent post of my exhaust. I'm running true duals with no cats. I'm running the 4" round 22" long Magnaflow mufflers.

I think you mean loud. But anyways, I'd run dual magnaflows, borlas, or slp loudmouths.

Ill post a vid of mine as soon as i get my buddies camera so i can down load them. Ive got duals and to 40 series flowmasters run into a y and single tail pipe. I love the way it sounds, truck runs better and has a deeper tone than true duals IMO.

Just to let you know, you are going to get a lot of opinions. I am very happy with the route that I took. I actually wanted something that sounded different than what anybody else had. I am now in love with it. It is not extremely loud, but sounds awesome! You are going to have to end up making your own decision.

BTW, LT's will add a different sound. IMP, make sure that the person has LT's on the video that you are watching. Just my $0.02....

i am open to opinions but however i do want a straight through muffler and i am going to run two seperate mufflers for sure. the one muffler with the internal x defetes the purpose of "true duals" to me and it makes it sound different. i dont want something very loud since its my dd and i have a 4month old baby that im riding around most of the time i do however plan to put electric cutouts in front of the mufflers to just be loud if i want to but i dont want to be awful loud all the time. i ran a flowmaster 10series on my 4.7v8 dakota i had and it sounded good but loud and i ran them with true duals on my 82 and 86 t/a's with lt headers no x or h pipe and with a 10:1 comp motor with a healthy cam i could barely hear the radio. magnaflow with no cats and lts on a lsx motor sounds wicked to me but i am really looking at the borla proxs too along with the dynomax ultraflo. those seem to flow very well from what ive seen. oh and no flowmaster because im tired of there sound and the restriction they give vs. some other mufflers. my car was faster going from flowmaster 10seires to dynomax turbo mufflers.
